Basic ideas to distribute the kitchen

How to distribute the kitchen

Distributing the kitchen is not something so simple because not all kitchens are the same. The sizes change but also their shapes, since we can find them very narrow, U-shaped or L-shaped, etc. But in this case we are not going to pay attention to the style itself but to ideas that you can adapt to all of them, because they are basic or general.

Without a doubt, this will help us much more. Because will highlight the functionality of each kitchen and that is something that we must always take into account, regardless of the meters that said room has. So, if you want to bet on more than perfect ideas because you are reforming, then do not miss everything that follows.

Distribute the kitchen in the functional triangle

Because every kitchen needs to have the so-called triangle. That is, an area that helps us have everything at hand when we go to cook. So if we think about it, What do we need to have close? On the one hand, the kitchen itself, the refrigerator or the food storage area and, of course, the sink. Well, those three points will form a triangle, in which the kitchen area and the sink will have to be on the same line. This is based on functionality.

Distribute small kitchens

The top on both sides of the kitchen and clear

It is true that sometimes we find kitchens that have little space on both sides, because they are attached to the wall. Sometimes it even happens with sinks. Well, both points of the triangle that we have previously formed, need to be free. Of course we do not always have enough space for it, but if we can, we must consider it. Given that we are going to need that freedom when it comes to cooking or washing up. If you have it, try not to monopolize it with decorative elements. An uncluttered kitchen is more comfortable, both when cooking and when cleaning afterwards.

Where to put the dishwasher?

As close to the sink as possible. This is usually more frequent, since in recent flats they already have their space very close to this place. Whether you are going to place it or if you choose to store the dishes while you do not buy it. You'll have everything at hand for when you want to clean, scrub and pick up. If you finally opt for the dishwasher, you already know that before introducing the plates or glasses, we usually rinse them a little and that is why we need to have the tap nearby.

Reserve a place on the counter for appliances

It is true that sometimes we have the integrated microwave, but we usually use more appliances every day. For this reason, although we like to have everything well organized, we can always make an exception. Therefore, the coffee maker tends to always be on the counter so you don't have to put it away and come back for it right away. Hence, you can choose a corner or a place that does not get in the way when cooking to place it. For the rest, always you can place an extra drawer or some larger modules, so that everything is more organized.

Bet on taking advantage of the walls

We don't want everything piled up. But sometimes we find ourselves with small kitchens, where we need more modules and we don't even know where they will go. Therefore, it is essential to take advantage of the walls for it. Remember not to place cabinets too high because they will not be as functional. But depending on the type of decoration you have, you can always bet on some shelves or new closed modules that give you that extra space that you ask for so much. The idea is not to have everything on the counter, but to make it look more open, as we have been commenting.

Stacking the tall furniture

Whenever we can, we have to give our kitchen a little space. For this reason, it is worth trying to keep all tall and vertical furniture on one side of it. For what towards the other we can opt for low furniture and some extra shelf. This will give a feeling of greater spaciousness and a clear kitchen. Distributing the kitchen correctly is now possible!
